Fall and Halloween Speech and Language Roundup

October 4, 2012 by Katie Filed Under: Language Enrichment Activities for Parents, Therapy Ideas and Activities, Therapy Materials and Product Recomendations 6 Comments

Last year I did several Fall and Halloween posts incorporating crafts, activities, and therapy ideas that can be adapted for use in therapy sessions or by parents at home to help expand speech and language skills. I thought it would be nice to have all these posts in one place! Just click on the picture below to take you to the post. Most of the posts have been revamped and updated so be sure to take a look even if you remember the post from last year! Have fun and stay tuned for new Fall and Halloween posts this month!

           

What do YOU have planned this month to target speech and language?

      CC….I use Pic Monkey to make the collages. I use Photoshop elements and photoshop lightroom to edit…but you don’t need them (photography is my hobby). Pic Monkey can do all you need and it’s free. As far as the links…you are on Blogger so it is a little different but basically you make the picture, upload it to blogger or a free picture hosting site, and then attach the URL of the image to the image you place in the post. Email me and I can see if I can walk you through it!
